Taqueria el Tio

Saw this place on social media, I went because the person reviewing it claimed they sold flour tortilla tacos (like they do in the northern part of mexico which I figured was mexicali) I drove to compton and noticed many other lunch trucks round. El tio tacos was also a lunch truck taco place, I went on a Saturday night:The good:-Plenty of seating-Well lit place (at night)-Decent condiments (except for the salsas, they were not spicy)-good choices of meat-pastor was decent-they give you lots of meat on your tacosThe Bad:-Flour tortilla tacos are made with store bought tortilla and they are the normal size-tacos were $4.00 each-salsas were weak-asada had no flavor-prices on everything on the menu were overpriced for the tasteOverall, 4 out of 10, I will not be coming back to this place.

Tacos tortillas hechas a mano hand made tortillas. HUGE!So this truck is in Compton on the west bound side of Compton Blvd, past Atlantic. Hand made tortilla tacos are huge! 2 is prob more than enough. Lots of salsas. But all lacking heat or flavor. Toppings are not the greatest. Horchata was really good. And they have real Mexican coke bottles. Because this area is plagued with taco stands and taco trucks. I would probably opt to try other places before coming back to this spot. Honestly Tacos El Sapo in East LA is much better. Gotta try the other spots and stands around here though.

These are the best Al pastor tacos I've tried. The customer service is great, they're always attentive, I've never had a bad customer experience here. They're not skimpy with the meat either, all dishes are well served with meat! I recommend their Al pastor 100000%. They have tables and chairs outside, their homemade sauces are good as well.

Vampiros are so crunchy and good. pastor is my favorite.Their red salsa is so good.

Horrible.. it used to be soooo good with a long line now nobody goes here...because the prices are crazy and the meat is not seasoned instead it has the texture of refried beans smh...idk if it's new management or what but what ever change u made...change it back before u go out of business

The best taco truck I've ever had!! Very good prices, nothing else to say! Oh yeah, the asada and chorizo are my favorite!

This review is based on the North Long beach location but it's the same owner. These tacos are the best in the area they were in front of big saver grocery store (Artesia & Orange) for the longest till they were asked to move by the city for unexplained reasons. Anywho they moved a few feet down but their Al pastor, birria and chicharrón en salsa verde are the best. The asada tacos taste good as well and their hand made tortilla tacos are the best. They are known for their birria and consome. They can be a bit pricey 2$ a taco with small tortilla can add up but the flavor makes up for the price. Give them a try best in the area.
